Russtang, thanks for the pictures. I took mine to the local delta repair shop and they said the circuit breaker is bad. He said when this happens, it’s usually the breaker, the capacitor or the motor. I’m lucky it’s the cheaper part that’s gone bad. But because I’m also missing a few other parts, (on/off switch, cover plate, screws) they want $250 to fix. I looked on ereplacementparts.com and the parts come out to be around $100. The on/off switch alone is $65 (why so expensive). I’m curious if I can use a regular light on/off switch. Would that work? Anyone tried this?

I have an opportunity to pick up the Delta 50-760 for $200 this weekend. I might end up getting that and salvage the 50-850 for parts or give it to someone else.
